Play Snakes and Ladders Online vs AI

This is the classic public-domain game on a 10×10 folding track: one token a side, entering from off the board onto square 1. Each turn you roll one six-sided die. Rolling a 6 does not give you another roll. There is no capturing and no swapping. Stop on the foot of a ladder and you climb to the top. Stop on a snake's head and you slide to its tail. You must land exactly on 100 to win. The ladders and snakes match the rules page. This is not Hasbro's Chutes and Ladders.

The AI reply runs in a dedicated browser Worker, so the whole position is not sent to a remote server while you wait to click again. The sidebar offers multiple AI levels, and the pacing changes with the level you pick. Hints follow that same level; they are not a stronger engine hiding behind the button. After you roll and before the token moves, a hint shows which square you will land on, including any ladder or snake on that stop.

The numbers fold back and forth. The bottom row runs left to right from 1 to 10. The next row counts right to left, so 11 sits directly above 10 and 12 is to its left. Your token follows that path, not one direction on every row. Your first roll brings the token onto the board. After that, each die moves you along the numbers, and snakes or ladders resolve on the square where you stop.

You need an exact finish. If the die would carry you beyond 100, you do not move on that turn and play passes to the other player. One square short means you must wait for a 1; you cannot move forward and step back. The board will tell you that an exact roll to 100 is required, which matches the rules page.

Look at where this roll would land and whether a ladder or snake is waiting there, then open the hint and compare. Hints appear only in AI play, after you have rolled and before the token moves. In AI mode, undo steps back through your last turn and the AI reply that followed, so you can try another line. On one shared device, undo goes back one turn at a time. Replay is for after the game, to see which climb or slide changed the race, not for changing a die roll during the other player's turn.

Yes. Open the page on a phone or computer and roll. There is no account, email, or password. Adding the site to your home screen is optional, and a full game works without installing anything.

Against the AI, yes. As Black you roll first. As White the AI rolls first. Switching color mid-game starts a new game, and the token does not stay halfway up the board. In an online room you pick your side when you create or join, and you can switch before play starts. Two players on one device do not choose colors: Black rolls first, and you take turns.

Games against the AI and games on one shared device stay in this browser, with a separate saved game for Black and for White. Refreshing or leaving briefly usually lets you continue. Clearing this site's data usually removes those games. Online rooms live on the server; reconnecting means opening the same link in the same browser, not logging into an account.

No. Once a roll is made in an online room, it is synced to the other player. There is no hint and no undo after that. Either player can offer a draw, and it counts only if the other accepts. You can resign, or the host can close the room and end the link. If the connection drops, opening the page again in the same browser usually brings you back to the same seat.

Two people share one device and take turns face to face. You do not need a network connection, and neither side gets a hint. Undo goes back one turn at a time, which is useful when you want to talk through whether a roll would overshoot 100. Replay is still for after the game. Black rolls first each game; swapping who starts is fairer over two games in a row. The rules are still public-domain Snakes and Ladders: one die each turn, and exactly 100 wins.
